What a finish! A nail-biter to the very end. Well played to both teams, but in the end, there can be only one winner. New Zealand will breathe a sigh of relief after today's match and will be hoping to be more authoritative in the next one. Probably a fair pitch in the greater scheme of things. There was something in it for the bowlers especially in terms of swing, seam and spin. These two teams were fairly evenly matched so it was tough to predict the outcome. That being said New Zealand proved to be the stronger in the end and snatched victory.
